Embodiment one:
Carry out alternately according to this method client and server according to following steps:
Step one: client obtains the URL of HLS index file from EPG (Electronic Program Guide), such as:
http://serverip:serverport/path/index.m3u8
Step 2: client is according to described URL request server, and server is according to the new URL of composition of content of request, and first, the URI of structuring user's request HLS index file, is then inserted into before URI by user profile mark, such as:
http://serverip:serverport/userid/path/index.m3u8
New URL is sent to client by the mode be redirected by server.
Step 3: client is according to new URL request server, server can be resolved user profile and is designated userid from URL, the URI of HLS index file is /path/index.m3u8, server manages user according to user profile mark, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Index file/path/index.m3u8 is sent to client according to URI by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data and download time etc. that this user of statistics downloads.
Step 4: client parses a URI from index file index.m3u8, then replaces index file title and later all contents in HLS index file URL with URI, constructs a new URL.Such as:
http://serverip:serverport/userid/path/s/m/n/1.ts
This new URL request server of client, server can parse user profile mark userid from new URL, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Segmental file is sent to client according to/path/s/m/n/1.ts by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data that this user of statistics downloads and download time etc.
Embodiment two:
Carry out alternately according to this method client and server according to following steps:
Step one: client obtains the URL of HLS index file from EPG (Electronic Program Guide), such as:
http://serverip:serverport/path/index.m3u8
Step 2: client is according to URL request server, and server is according to the new URL of composition of content of request, and first, the URI of structuring user's request HLS index file, is then inserted into user profile mark before URI after BASE64 coding again, such as:
http://serverip:serverport/base64encoder(userid)/path/index.m3u8
New URL is sent to client by the mode be redirected by server.
Step 3: client is according to new URL request server, server obtains the user profile mark after BASE64 coding from URL, then adopt BASE64 decoding to obtain user profile and be designated userid, the URI of HLS index file is /path/index.m3u8, server manages user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Index file/path/index.m3u8 is sent to client according to URI by server, then manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data and download time etc. that this user of statistics downloads.
Step 4: client parses a URI from index file index.m3u8, then replaces index file title and later all contents in the URL of HLS index file with URI, construct a new URL.Such as:
http://serverip:serverport/base64encoder(userid)/path/s/m/n/1.ts
This new URL request server of client, server obtains the user profile mark after BASE64 coding from URL, then adopt BASE64 decoding to obtain user profile and be designated userid, server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Segmental file is sent to client according to/path/s/m/n/1.ts by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data that this user of statistics downloads and download time etc.
Embodiment three:
Carry out alternately according to this method client and server according to following steps:
Step one: client obtains the URL of HLS index file from EPG (Electronic Program Guide), such as:
http://serverip:serverport/path/index.m3u8
Step 2: client is according to URL request server, the URL that server is new according to the composition of content of request, first, the URI of structuring user's request HLS index file, then user profile mark is inserted into before URI, and before user profile mark, increase additional identification code/.hls/, identified the position of user profile mark by additional identification code, such as:
http://serverip:serverport/.hls/userid/path/index.m3u8
New URL is sent to client by the mode be redirected by server.
Step 3: client is according to new URL request server, server parses additional identification code/.hls/ from URL, can judge in URL, to there is user profile mark according to additional identification code/.hls/, then parse user profile and be designated userid, the URI of HLS index file is /path/index.m3u8, server manages user according to user profile mark, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Index file/path/index.m3u8 is sent to client according to URI by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data and download time etc. that this user of statistics downloads.
Step 4: client parses a URI from index file index.m3u8, then replaces index file title and later all contents in the URL of HLS index file with URI, construct a new URL.Such as:
http://serverip:serverport/.hls/userid/path/s/m/n/1.ts
This new URL request server of client, server can parse additional identification code/.hls/ from URL, can judge in URL, to there is user profile mark according to additional identification code/.hls/, then user profile mark userid is parsed, server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Segmental file is sent to client according to/path/s/m/n/1.ts by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data that this user of statistics downloads and download time etc.
Embodiment four:
Carry out alternately according to this method client and server according to following steps:
Step one: client obtains the URL of HLS index file from EPG (Electronic Program Guide), such as:
http://serverip:serverport/path/index.m3u8
Step 2: client is according to URL request server, the URL that server is new according to the composition of content of request, first, the URI of structuring user's request HLS index file, then user profile mark is inserted into before URI after BASE64 encryption, and increase additional identification code/.hls/ above, identified the position of user profile mark by additional identification code, such as:
http://serverip:serverport/.hls/base64encoder(userid)/path/index.m3u8
New URL is sent to client by the mode be redirected by server.
Step 3: client is according to new URL request server, server can parse additional identification code/.hls/ from URL, can judge in URL, to there is user profile mark according to additional identification code/.hls/, then resolve and obtain user profile through BASE64 deciphering and be designated userid, the URI of HLS index file is /path/index.m3u8, server manages user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Index file/path/index.m3u8 is sent to client according to URI by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data and download time etc. that this user of statistics downloads.
Step 4: client parses a URI from index file index.m3u8, then replaces index file title and later all contents in the URL of HLS index file with URI, construct a new URL.Such as:
http://serverip:serverport/.hls/base64encoder(userid)/path/s/m/n/1.ts
This new URL request server of client, server can parse additional identification code/.hls/ from URL, can judge that URL exists user profile mark according to additional identification code/.hls/, then resolve and obtain user profile mark userid through BASE64 deciphering, server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises the access allowing or refuse this user.Segmental file is sent to client according to/path/s/m/n/1.ts by server, and server manages this user according to user profile mark userid, comprises size of data that this user of statistics downloads and download time etc.
Embodiment five:
Carry out alternately according to this method client and server according to following steps:
Step one: client obtains the URL of HLS index file from EPG (Electronic Program Guide), such as:
http://serverip:serverport/path/index.m3u8
Step 2: client is according to described URL request server, and server, according to the URL generating user information mark of request, then reads the content of HLS index file according to the URI information in user's request URL/path/index.m3u8, such as:
